Emotionally, it's a personal decision. But divorcees tend to know what went wrong in their first marriages and presumably wouldn't want to make those mistakes again. So theoretically, a second marriage would be more successful. Then again, a divorced person may be more inclined to throw in the towel in a second marriage because of a sense of impermanence regarding marriage. If you're considering remarriage, then it's important to have all aspects of your first marriage settled - financial arrangements, child custody, etc. Try premarriage counseling with your new partner in order to hash out any unresolved issues and lay the foundation for a strong marriage. Finally, think positive. Leave any negative thoughts about your first marriage or pessimism about marriage in general in the past. Don't let your past mistakes drag you down when you're ready to start afresh.
